Other than eliminating a few selections, I wasn't trying to run away with this.  I know Stanger in a Strange Land is gonna get smacked down, and I'm ok with that.  I just wanted to lift it up for a while.

OFF TOPIC ALERT:

I remember when we did this for Kid A on the music messageboards, track by track... it ran to three hundred pages. The end result was that it was declared a draw between Everything In It's Right Place and Idioteque, both with 78 points. Insane.
